Moses, as a prophet and leader, is addressing Korah, a Levite who is challenging his authority. This confrontation is significant in the narrative of Israel's journey, highlighting the tension between divine appointment and human ambition. Korah's name, meaning "bald" or "ice," may symbolize his stark opposition to Moses. Historically, this moment is pivotal as it underscores the importance of respecting God's chosen leaders.<p><b>Now listen</b><br />The phrase "now listen" is a call to attention, urging Korah and his followers to heed the words of Moses. In Hebrew, the word for "listen" is "shama," which implies not just hearing but understanding and obeying. This is a critical moment where Moses is attempting to redirect Korah's rebellious spirit towards obedience and submission to God's will. The call to listen is a recurring theme in Scripture, emphasizing the importance of heeding divine instruction.<p><b>you sons of Levi</b><br />The "sons of Levi" refers to the Levites, the tribe set apart for religious duties and service in the Tabernacle. Levi, the third son of Jacob and Leah, is the patriarch of this tribe. The Levites held a special status among the Israelites, tasked with maintaining the sanctity of worship. However, Korah's rebellion represents a misuse of this privileged position, as he seeks to usurp the roles designated by God. This phrase serves as a reminder of the Levites' sacred responsibilities and the consequences of straying from their divine calling. Historically, this incident is a lesson in humility and the dangers of pride within spiritual leadership.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/numbers/16.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 8.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi.</span> No son of Levi is mentioned in the narrative except Korah, and this address itself passes into the second person singular (verses 10, 11), as though Korah alone were personally guilty. It is possible enough that behind him was a considerable body of public opinion among the Levites more or less decidedly supporting him; but there is no need to impute any general disloyalty to them. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/numbers/16-8.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">Moses</span><br /><span class="heb">מֹשֶׁ֖ה</span> <span class="translit">(mō·šeh)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun -
